Welcome on board mate and phew, another one is saved from cruiser culture hehe. You will never have a Tenere passenger as happy as a Cruiser passenger cos the bike is soooo much more slim and high up and built for the purpose, comfort is not a major consideration (well not really ever a minor one to be honest!!). I suggest some rubber covers on the footrests (to reduce the vibration) is a good idea, and then some seat cover or cushion maybe??? Comments please guys!!!
